My Everyday Makeup Look

Recently I have been wearing the
products in the photo above to create a natural glowy everyday makeup look. I’m
going to tell you a bit about why I love each product and how I use it.

Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation– Before I apply my foundation, I
moisturise my face using E45 as I have dry skin, followed by a thin layer of
Nivea Shaving Balm as a primer. I have clear skin so I usually go for
foundations with a light coverage and a glowy finish as my skin can sometimes
look a bit dull early in the morning.

LA Girl Pro Conceal– Next I apply this
concealer under my eyes to brighten them and around my nose and chin as I
have a few blemishes here. For the price, I think this concealer is amazing and the formula is much smoother and lighter than other concealers I have tried and
it gives incredible coverage.

Sacha Buttercup Setting Powder–
I watch a lot of American Youtubers and they are always raving about this
setting powder so when I found out that they had it on Amazon for just £20
including shipping, I thought it was worth the try. I dip my beauty blender
into the powder and I do a light dusting underneath my eyes, on my chin and
over my eyelids. The powder is finely milled and has a yellow undertone and
unlike the Ben Nye Banana powder, it does not give flashback when taking photos!

ABH Dipbrow Pomade– Ladies, if you are a brow fanatic like myself then put down whatever product
you are currently using and go onto BeautyBay and order this product immediately
along with the ABH number 12 brush. This product has a lot of hype and I must
say it is worth the hype. The formula is creamy and waterproof (so you do not
have to worry about your eyebrows sliding away if he decides to take you
swimming on the first date) I would 100% recommend this to anyone with sparse,
faint eyebrows who is unable to find a product that works for them. ABH has a wide variety of shades and undertones so there is a pomade for everyone!

theBalm Betty-Lou Manizer– I have only had this highlighter for 3 weeks and already I have fallen in
love. If you are a WOC and you are looking for an affordable highlighter for
your skin tone, I recommend this. It’s a bronzy copper highlighter with golden
shimmer and although it is a powder highlighter it is not at all drying. Previously, I used to use the MAC mineralise skin finish in Global Glow
but since purchasing this, it has been demoted to the back of my Muji drawers.

Benefit They’re Real Mascara– I
am sure every beauty blogger has this lying around somewhere in their
makeup collection. Without a doubt, this is my all time favourite high end
mascara, I have tried a variety of drugstore mascaras and none of them compare
to this one. It lengthens, curls and adds volume to your lashes, what more
could you want?

Mac Whirl Matte Lipstick - Last but not least, my current favourite lip prouduct, Whirl. This is another very popular product amongst the beauty community and I purchased this a few weeks ago as I thought it was about time I got a MAC lipstick. Whirl is a pinkish-brown nude which looks amazing paired with the MAC chestnut lip liner, a great combo for an everyday look!
